Seventy-seven inflatable Halloween decorations fill a yard on Blairhouse Drive in Anderson Township, the product of a 15-year collecting habit by twin brothers Sully and Grady Gagen.

The display was first reported by WLWT on Monday, Oct. 26. The Gagen twins started collecting inflatable decorations when they were three years old. Fifteen years later, the brothers display all 77 inflatables in their family's yard each Halloween season.

Setting up the full display takes eight days, the twins told WLWT.

The brothers said they enjoy making people smile with the collection. The display is viewable on Blairhouse Drive ahead of Anderson Township's trick-or-treat night on Saturday, Oct. 31.
